The first game of the season and as games go this was brilliant. We created chances scoring one of them and defended really well.
Michael Chopra scored a last minute goal to send the Stadium of Light in to raptures.
Sunderland should have scored minutes earlier through Etuhu but Robinson saved brilliantly.
Murphy had a good chance in the first half when he was through on goal with only the keeper to beat, but he could only find Robinson with his shot.
Spurs were limited to long range shots for most of the game as Sunderland defended brilliantly.

Match Comment
An excellent result, we played well from the beginning to the very end. I think if we had carried on playing for another 90 minutes Spurs still wouldn`t have scored, our defence was outstanding today. I hope we can keep it up for the rest of the season.

Whats the crack about Mido and some sort of bidding war its in all the papers
I think its just paper talk. It will be a done deal with the smoggies
I still think we need another quality striker
I can’t belive he would want to join a small town in yorkshire over us
lol how sad merlin and blueisthecolour…oh how very sad. congrats on 2day but it was one game for all you fans saying were not going to break the top 4…one loss means nothing. wait till we have Lennon, Dawson, King, Bale, LYP, BAE, KPB ready to play. MJs tactics were quite simply AWFUL.
What happening with Mido I haven’t heard nowt yet he was suposed to be signing for them today.
Congrats on the win Saturday, I think it shows against quality opposition Keane gets the team working really hard.
Yeah he is proving himself time and time again. Theres only one Keano
Great win at the weekend – you guys looked amazing! Well done!
